high-rise icy peaks
guard the wavy desert heat
wagon train on pause
hunts the hazy hard pan trail
coyotes howl into the dusk

I felt like the first two lines really put me there.

Very atmospheric!

This is so beautiful! Brings a long-past moment so close you could almost touch it. :)
Westward ho!
I see the icy peaks.
You are very talented.

Wonderful imagery. The howling coyotes would give me pause as well.
A great landscape - I love the atmosphere of this piece.
Yes, superb..love the fractal that somehow enhanced the imagery for me, thank you.
Beautiful imagery...I wanted to read this out loud because the words were so pleasant to hear.
This felt so good, I was there watching that desert heat, looking for the trail and felt the coyotes lurking. Beautifully done, Susan.
Perfect image of a past time. Reminded me of the Oregon Trail :)
The atmosphere of this poem reminded me, somehow, of the Gold Rush. Thanks for sharing such beautiful words.
